IA: Universal Serial Bus Support for Keyboards and Mouse Devices

Solaris Intel Platform Edition now provides Universal Serial Bus (USB) support for keyboards and mouse devices. USB is an emerging I/O bus standard that supports a wide variety of peripherals, such as speakers, modems, printers, and cameras, as well as keyboards and mouse devices. While a fairly new standard, USB is quickly gaining wide acceptance in the Intel market. USB ports are becoming a standard on many IA based machines, and USB support is being integrated into all Intel PCI chip sets.
